Satara

Tourism in Satara flourishes due to its main attraction, the Kaas Plateau--a World Heritage-listed "Valley of Flowers" teeming with wild, colorful blossoms. Surrounded by seven hills, the Western Maharashtra city offers tourists plenty of hiking opportunities, as well as historic fortresses to admire. On a trip to Satara, you can sample its most famous product, a local take on the "peda" sweet. Satara is in Satara District.
